## com.epochx.op.crossover
Class UniformPointCrossover<TYPE>

    java.lang.Object
      com.epochx.op.crossover.UniformPointCrossover<TYPE>

All Implemented Interfaces:
  GenerationListener, Crossover<TYPE>

    public class UniformPointCrossover<TYPE>

extends java.lang.Object
implements Crossover<TYPE>, GenerationListener

This class implements standard crossover with uniform swap points.

Constructor Summary
`UniformPointCrossover(GPModel<TYPE> model)`

Method Summary
`CandidateProgram<TYPE>[]` | `crossover(CandidateProgram<TYPE> program1, CandidateProgram<TYPE> program2)` Crossover the two `CandidatePrograms` provided as arguments using uniform swap points.
`void` | `onGenerationStart()` Called at the start of each generation.

Constructor Detail

### UniformPointCrossover

    public UniformPointCrossover(GPModel<TYPE> model)

Method Detail

### crossover

    public CandidateProgram<TYPE>[] crossover(CandidateProgram<TYPE> program1,
                                              CandidateProgram<TYPE> program2)

  Crossover the two `CandidatePrograms` provided as arguments using uniform swap points. Random crossover points are chosen at random in both programs, the genetic material at the points are then exchanged. The resulting programs are returned as new CandidateProgram objects.

  Specified by:
    `crossover` in interface `Crossover<TYPE>`
  Parameters:
    `program1` - The first CandidateProgram selected to undergo uniform point crossover.
    `program2` - The second CandidateProgram selected to undergo uniform point crossover.
  Returns:
    An array of the child CandidatePrograms that were the result of an exchange of genetic material between the two parents.

### onGenerationStart

    public void onGenerationStart()

  Description copied from interface: `GenerationListener`
  Called at the start of each generation. Note that this method is called before the generation statistics are generated so any generation statistics will be created based upon the population returned here.

  Specified by:
    `onGenerationStart` in interface `GenerationListener`
